This isn't mine.
My dad died about 10 years ago when my sister and I were in our teens, but we still have lots of pictures and my 3 year old niece knows that the man in the pictures is Grandad Phil who Lives in Heaven. Her cat got run over a couple of months ago and my sister told my niece that cat had gone to heaven and we found her screaming at pictures of Dad because "Grandad Phil had stolen Tiglet". The when we went to Ireland for a family wedding she asked if we were goign to heaven because "Heaven is a long, long, long way away." So if you're three all dead people live in Ireland and if your cats play on the road the Dead steal them.
